Hey, I'm not religious about this or anything, just not yet convinced. ;-)
Could you try Bill Hawes' patch from earlier today, I believe the message
was entitled "Re: Bug in mounting routines of atapi-cdroms". It is intended
to try and catch this type of problem. Whatever the bug is, it is subtle,
and we want it squashed. Try out Bill's patch, and maybe we'll squash it.
Thanks,
-Erik
